Curious, how many people are actually interested in this? I'd figure everyone interested would have played it already on the Xbox...years ago.

I concur with some of the other posts in here. Good luck selling this game long after it was released on an inferior system. No self-respecting PC fan would support this policy of getting the game WAY later. C'mon Bioware, we expect better than this - especially considering that it was PC gamers who made you what you are today. Nuff said.

Much props for doing this thankless task. The PC platform thanks all parties responsible (played both KotORs on the PC, can't imagine them on a console).

I love Bioware games and I've got probably all of their pc games. When it comes to console port of Jade Empire I think it will be unremarkable.

The graphics will be dated (yeah, yeah, I know gameplay counts) to such a degree that I'll notice it all the time. Happened to me with most console ports (like Fable for example). It's not like I require ultra cool graphics to enjoy my game but it looks different and I can tell immediately its console game. Be it lower polygons or what I don't know. The gameplay mechanics will never be as good as if it were made for pc in the first place. I so hope I'm wrong.
